Summary of Issue

Does the difference in type of brake chamber constitute a mismatched brake chamber on the steering axle?

Justification or Need

Clarification the wording regarding "Type" vs. "Size"

Request for Action

Modify the wording in OOSC in Part II, 1.b.(2)(a) to specify if it is Type or Size or both. Does outside diameter measurement play any part when you compare clamp vs roto chambers?
